Hire the best ghostwriters in Los Angeles, California

Animorphs, Nancy Drew, and The Count of Monte Cristo all depended on ghostwriting. Surprising, right? Without their trustworthy ghosts — writers who write under someone else’s published name — many authors would never have seen their story come to print. Ghostwriters make up the secret engine powering the publishing industry. From business books to celebrity memoirs, professional ghosts are responsible for producing many of the books you see on bookshelves today.

If you’ve always had a book in your heart, but could never quite bring it into the world, a ghostwriter could be your best shot at doing so. However, a great ghostwriter for hire in Los Angeles can be hard to find. The best professional ghostwriters are familiar with the ins and outs of the industry and must be able to adopt another person’s voice at a moment’s notice. Prior experience writing in the genre is another prerequisite.

And if you’re looking for a stellar ghostwriter for hire in Los Angeles, Reedsy is the perfect place to start your search. Simply sign up and start browsing professional Los Angeles ghostwriters’ profiles today — you might even discover a few more titles you never knew were ghostwritten.
